Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who has respiratory failure due to ventilation-perfusion (V/Q) mismatch. The nurse should recognize that the client most likely has which of the following conditions?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Emphysema causes V/Q mismatch due to alveolar destruction, leading to poor ventilation but adequate perfusion, resulting in hypoxemia. Flail chest impairs breathing mechanics, congestive heart failure causes diffusion defects, and Guillain-Barré syndrome affects respiratory muscles, not directly causing V/Q mismatch.
